Late at night, the time has come to the fifth day.
Xuanmiao City, west side of the Imperial Palace, Taiping Gate.
"For the record, sir," an eyewitness soldier reported to Lin Chaofeng and others, "it should have been a prison van that exploded!"
"What!?" Lin Chaofeng was shocked, "Prison car?"
He suddenly felt a sense of suffocation in his heart, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his lips became pale and pale.
Upon seeing this, a guard nearby quickly took out a pill and gave it to Lin Chaofeng. After Lin Chaofeng took it, her expression softened slightly.
"A bunch of bastards!" General Habayashi Wei cursed, "You actually let a prison car approach the Taiping Gate. How did you keep watch?"
"This..." The soldier was quite unjust and quickly knelt down to defend himself, "Sir, we don't know the specific situation! The soldiers on duty have all been injured!"
"Explosives..."
Xu Zun behind him was secretly shocked, he didn't expect that there was really explosives.
But he could never figure out why it was a prison van that was bombed.
"Report to the General Manager," at this time, an internal guard reported, "We have inspected the scene. No one was killed in this explosion, but all six soldiers guarding the city gate were seriously injured."
"Report..." Another internal guard came from another direction and reported, "Report to the chief manager, there is nothing going on at other gates of the palace."
"Explore again!" After Lin Chaofeng gave the order, he turned around and said to General Yu Linwei, "Hurry up and notify the Beiya Imperial Guards to dispatch all the left and right guards to strengthen the guards at the palace gates, expand the scope of inspections, and strictly investigate any suspicious situations!"
"Yes!" General Yulinwei took the order.
Soon, someone came to the crowd carrying a wounded soldier.
This man was burned black all over, his entire right arm was bloody and bloody, and his eyes seemed to be invisible.
"Tell me quickly, what happened?" Lin Chaofeng urged.
"Just now...just now a prison van drove up from the east," the injured soldier recalled, "we stopped the prison van for routine inspection.
"However, the man driving the prison car took the arrest approval document from the warden and said he wanted to send the prison car to the Criminal Department to escort the prisoners.
"We recognized the document and verified that the official seal was correct, so we had no choice but to let it go.
"Unexpectedly, when the prison car reached the middle of the Taiping Gate, it suddenly changed its route and rushed straight towards the Taiping Gate.
"We wanted to stop him, but the prison van suddenly exploded, knocking us unconscious..."
"Are you sure... those are the documents and official seals of the Warden Department?" Lin Chaofeng took a breath.
"Sure!" the soldier replied affirmatively.
"How many people are driving and how many people are escorting?" Lin Chaofeng asked.
"Only...only one driver!" the soldier replied.
"The driver was also killed?"
"Didn't... didn't pay attention..."
"Then have you opened the prison car and checked it?" Lin Chaofeng asked.
"This..." The soldier was speechless, obviously not checking.
"A bunch of bastards!" Lin Chaofeng signaled to his men to carry the person away, while covering his heart with a very painful expression.
Obviously he has realized that the situation is far beyond his control and is getting worse.
Xu Zun was also feeling frightened. He thought it was Xuanmen's catastrophe plan that had been launched, but he didn't expect that it was just a small explosion at Taipingmen.
However, he keenly felt that this might be just the beginning.
"Where...where did the explosives come from?" Cai Kun asked out of thin air, but no one answered his question.
"Is the official seal of the warden a joke?" Lin Chaofeng said tremblingly, "Send someone to investigate immediately. What is going on?
"If we can't find out one, two, or three, none of us will be able to get over it! Oh..."
He was clutching his heart in pain, as if he had a serious heart attack.
Cai Kun and others were naturally pale with fright and panic, and immediately sent all their personnel to investigate the explosion...
No, no...
At this moment, looking at the explosion in front of him, Xu Zun was filled with thoughts and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Assassination... culvert... explosives...
What are those Xuanmen rebels going to do?
Why did they use a prison van to attack the emergency gate? Apart from injuring a few soldiers, it seemed to have no effect.
So... where did you get the explosives?
Why do they have documents stamped with the seal of the warden?
The warden of the warden also died in that assassination. Is there any connection between the two?
explode……
Recalling the explosion at the Kuhe Pier in Yonghui City, the explosives were indeed quite powerful.
Moreover, since Li Ronger has explosives, it is conceivable that Xuanmen must also have explosives.
Is it possible...
Combining many factors, Xu Zun suddenly thought of a possibility, maybe... there was something buried deep in the dark underground.
As long as that thing can be blown up, then the entire palace or the entire mysterious city may be overturned?
And this thing may be some kind of large-scale equipment used to repair water conservancy back then?
Cao Ding had the information about this thing, so he was targeted by Xuanmen. He wanted to use such a thing to carry out the heavenly tribulation operation?
Really...is there such a thing?
Huh...huh...
Xu Zun felt his heart beating faster and his blood boiling. If his speculation was true, then the real danger was underground?
But……
If that was the case, why did they have to take the risk to blow up the fire gate? Didn't this remind themselves?
Tsk tsk...
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out...
Suddenly, Xu Zun felt like he had fallen into an endless spider web. He could only see spider silk around him, but he could not see where the real spider was!
And by the time you can see the spider, it may be too late...
no……
Thinking of this, Xu Zun decided not to worry about the explosion anymore, but after asking Lin Chaofeng for instructions, he decided to continue to search for clues in the Internal Guard Mansion.
Lin Chaofeng was also shocked. Apart from deploying more troops, strengthening guards and patrols, he could no longer think of any good ideas.
So, several people split up and acted separately. Cai Kun went to the Warden Department to investigate the explosion, while Xu Zun returned to the Internal Security Bureau.
The situation has reached a critical point. Those Xuanmen assassins have been there for many days. God knows when the catastrophe will start.
Xu Zun couldn't care less and immediately told his speculations to the experts present.
However, despite all their knowledge, these knowledgeable experts have never heard of anything like what Xu Zun said.
Moreover, everyone thought Xu Zun was being alarmist.
In particular, Lan Qizhi, Minister of Industry, explained the geological structure and construction engineering of the Holy City to Xu Zun in a precise manner, and refuted Xu Zun's arguments from all aspects.
He still insisted on his statement that the entire palace was impregnable. Even if the Xuanmen rebels really used explosives underground, they would still be unable to damage the palace in the slightest.
At the end of the discussion, Xu Zun returned without success and had no choice but to return to the inner hall.
Looking at the dense information on the desk, Xu Zun felt powerless for the first time.
After all, this case can no longer be called a case. It is simply a carefully planned, well-designed, and large-scale terrorist attack.
He had already instinctively sensed that the crucial moment of disaster was coming soon!
At this time, what should I do to stop them?
"My lord, my lord..." At this time, Huo Anu hurried in and reported to Xu Zunhui, "The Eastern Divine Catcher has woken up..."
